Twenty Four Moons Is A New Bookcase Sessions Original Song
“Twenty Four Moons” was written on June 2, 2015. It’s the last complete song from the Spring of 2015 that had yet to be released to you in some way; that situation is now rectified!
Shipping a new song is a pretty good way to kick off my birthday, I think!
This one started with a sliding riff (F#~G, G~A) kinda sorta reminiscent of something you might hear from X… but I think the complete song owes more to maybe late seventies / early eighties Nick Lowe or Elvis Costello. If you, dear reader, can suss out other influences less obvious to me, let me know what you hear by leaving a comment!
I can really hear a full band on this song. I probably should have played electric guitar—it would have been easier—but that’s not how the Bookcase Sessions work!
“Twenty Four Moons” is the twelfth installment in my video series, The Bookcase Sessions. Since I’m all caught up in that regard, it should be a little while before there’s another one (although I do have a couple of song fragments I’d like to develop soon).
